“A natural arboretum?” you might ask, peering across the water. “On such a tiny island?” Well, let me tell you about Supetar Island. This little jewel, nestled between Dubrovnik and Cavtat, boasts a shoreline of just 946 meters. However, don’t let its size fool you. Supetar Island is a haven of lush Mediterranean vegetation, a green oasis that has flourished for years. The island’s history is just as rich as its flora. Records of Supetar Island date back to the 3rd century AD, revealing its deep connection to the powerful Dubrovnik Republic. This island held a special significance, not just for its strategic location but also for its captivating beauty and shroud of mystery. The discovery of numerous Roman amphoras from the 1st century AD hints at Supetar’s ancient roots. Imagine, an island older than the grand Dubrovnik itself, a place where history whispers through the leaves and shimmers in the surrounding waters. Today, Supetar Island offers a tranquil escape. It’s the perfect place to unwind in the shade of ancient trees, take a dip in your own private slice of the Adriatic Sea, and let the magic of the island wash over you.
